web-fetch is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from archibate/agent-skills. It costs 58 tokens per session (686 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A page-fetching tool that turns a known web address into Markdown that an AI assistant can read. Markdown is plain text with simple formatting for headings, links, and lists.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to read articles, documentation, README files, blog posts, social posts, and academic papers from a known URL.
Why use it?
It helps retrieve readable page content when ordinary command-line fetching produces clutter, incomplete output, or a refusal.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

web-fetch scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/fetch_zhihu.py, scripts/html-select.py, scripts/html-unescape.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

A licence we could not identify

The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
